Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (SeaWolf Press Illustrated Classic): First Edition Cover

Great book, great edition!
For anyone who thinks this book is racist, I would say you missed the point. Huck struggles against what society tells him is the "right" thing to form a friendship with Jim and try to free him from slavery and captivity. He does the right thing, even though he's been raised that it's wrong. Twain was an abolitionist who wrote this after emancipation to address the negative feelings people had towards freed slaves. However, it is still very applicable today.The Sea Wolf Press edition is fabulous! The font is easy to read and there is room to make annotations if you like to do that. The illustrations are amusing (garter snakes with buttons tied to their tails!) and they add to the story.Twain is a masterful story teller. This book has so many layers. You could read it several times and still find something new, interesting, or thought provoking. Being from the Mississippi River side of Missouri, the descriptions are spot on, especially the storm on the island. I've seen those storms when the world turns all blue-black... And shouldn't we all live like Huck - doing the right thing even if society says it's wrong and treating others like equals, or even friends? What a world that would be!

Great Illustrations
The period illustrations are great. If reading with a young one, prepare them for the n-word. Lots and lots of the n-word. It should never be changed, only prepared for. A very important text by an amazing author.

Interesting classic American book.
Adventures involving interpersonal relationships as well as other spocial issues. I suggest reading in over an extended period of time rather thanina few sittings.

terrible transcription
Unreadable. Huck Finn did not look at ebooks, yet the text keeps referring to them. It's a chore to translate from this version to what Twain wrote. Not worth it.

Don't pay for this
This is unreadable machine-translated trash. Did a human who knew the book read as much as half a page of it before putting it in the store?
